The G Scar protocol combines various modalities, each of which contributes in a specific way to delivering optimal results when treating scars and associated issues, including pigmentation.

Non Ablative fractional laser

Fractional resurfacing uses multiple wave length, high density fractional laser technology to produce thousands of tiny but deep microscopic zones of laser columns, invisible to the naked eye, that target flawed skin and leave surrounding skin untouched. This stimulates the repair process and growth of new, healthy skin cells to replace old, damaged cells. Skin turnover and collagen production is actually just the body’s natural healing process accelerated. 

Erbium Yag ablative laser resurfacing

Ablative lasers work by removing the outer layers of damaged skin, stimulating collagen production, and revealing smoother, fresher looking skin with improved texture and tone.  The procedure involves the precise application of a high-intensity laser beam to the skin’s surface, causing direct vaporisation (ablation) of tissue down to the reticular dermis layer of the skin and, at the same time, heats the underlying skin (dermis). 

PDL Vascular laser

The pulse dye laser delivers light energy at specific wavelengths optimal for haemoglobin absorption to target blood vessels and pigmented lesions. This heats and destroys the vascular lesions for improved appearance.

Pico Laser

We use a picosecond pulsed light laser to address pigmentation issues associated with scarring. This creates intense photothermal impacts in trillionths of a second. The high intensity flash of light is emitted at three wavelengths, specifically to target the chromophore and address pigmentation issues. The laser energy is selectively absorbed by pigment particles, breaking them up to be eliminated by the body’s immune system. This technology minimises thermal damage, resulting in minimal discomfort or downtime.

Intralesional injections

Intralesional injections deliver corticosteroids directly into scar tissues, resulting in a high local drug concentration. This can help to reduce the size of hypertrophic scars or keloids, as steroids break the bonds between collagen fibres, which reduces the amount of scar tissue beneath the skin. Steroids also have powerful anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce swelling, redness, itching, or tenderness.
